The thiopyran unit of the title molecule, C17H15ClO2S, is in chair form. A crystallographic mirror plane bisects the molecule, passing through the O=S and the opposite C=O atoms of the central ring, with statistical disorder of the Cl atom. The geometry around the S atom is tetrahedral and the carbonyl C is planar. The 4-chlorophenyl group at the 2 position and the phenyl ring at the 6 position have equatorial orientations. Intermolecular C—H⋯O and C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds are found in the In addition, there is a short O⋯C intermolecular contact [2.970 (5) Å].

A mixture of cis-2-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-phenyldithian-4-one (3.18 g, 0.01 mol), diethyl ether (60 ml), bromine (3.0 g) in water (30 ml) was shaken for few minutes. The solid that separated was filtered, washed with ether and recrystallized from chloroform-carbon tetrachloride mixture (1:1 v/v). The yield obtained was 68%(2.16 g).
The structure was solved in the
Pnma with half a molecule in the The other half is related by a mirror plane symmetry [x, 1/2 - y, z]. The s.o.f. of C14A, Cl1, C14B and H14B is 0.5 and for the remaining phenyl group atoms it is 1.00. This confirms the (p-chloro)phenyl group at 2 position and the phenyl group at 6 position. The H atoms were positioned geometrically and allowed to ride on their parent atoms with C—H = 0.93–0.98 Å and Uiso = 1.2Ueq(C).Data collection: APEX2 (Bruker, 2004); cell

Geometry. Bond distances, angles etc. have been calculated using the rounded fractional coordinates. All su's are estimated from the variances of the (full) variance-covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account in the estimation of distances, angles and torsion angles |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > 2σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Increasing interest has been focused on the stereochemical aspects of sulphoxides. The conformational analysis of cyclic sulphoxides is an area of attraction for many groups (Okada & Tanaka, 2002; Hutton et al., 2002; Contreras et al., 1998). Significant attention was earlier directed toward the conformational analysis of substituted thian-1-oxides (Freeman et al., 2001; Nagao et al., 1995). The conformational integrity of the sulphoxide has also generated interest in the various conditions under which it may undergo stereoisomerization. A large number of aliphatic, aromatic and cyclic sulphoxides exhibit antimicrobial activity (Ingold et al., 1999; Ansel et al., 2006; Rouvier et al., 2004). Although extensive studies on sulphoxides have disclosed their chemical and physico-chemical properties, little is known about the properties of the sulphinyl groups in cyclic sulphoxides. To investigate the conformations, substitution effect and antimicrobial activity of unsymmetrical thiopyran-4-one 1-oxides, the title compound was synthesized.
Thiruvalluvar et al., (2007) have reported a crystal structure of 2-(4-Fluorophenyl)-6-phenyltetrahydro-2H-thiopyran-4-one 1-oxide, wherein the thiopyran unit is in chair form. The molecular structure of the title compound, with atomic numbering scheme, is shown in Fig. 1. The thiopyran unit of the title molecule, C17H15ClO2S, is in the chair form. The geometry around S1 atom is tetrahedral and C4 is planar. A crystallographic mirror plane bisects the molecule, passing through the O=S and the opposite C=O atoms of the central ring. The (p-chloro)phenyl at the 2 position and the phenyl ring at the 6 position have equatorial orientations. C2—H2···O1(x, y, 1 + z) and C15—H15···Cl1(1/2 - x, -y, -1/2 + z) intermolecular hydrogen bonds forming an infinite one dimensional chain with base vector [0 0 1] are found in the crystal structure. Further, a short intermolecular O1···C4(x, y, -1 + z) contact of 2.970 (5)Å is also found in the crystal structure.
